"I did it.. For the Rock"

Pacquiao just going about his business being a God in his country, letting Arum handle his business just as long as PAC gets his $$ he's happy.

Floyd-Arum are the culprits.

I'm a Pac fan and the only worries I would have regarding the fight would be the judges/advantages that Floyd would try to apply. I'm interested in a trilogy if the first two are competitive. It would blow if Floyd got a controversial decision and decided not to rematch.

Let their careers end on a trilogy with each other.

Trilogy? If you want to see Floyd kick Pacs a$$ 3 times..Sure

Pacquiao is coward.....he prefers to fight espn fighters and cab drivers like Algieri and Vargas then to fight any of the ww killers. He's gonna queef his pvssy a$$ down 140 after he ducks Floyd for the fourth time.

You think HBO would appreciate being cut out from one of the biggest boxing fights of all time and have arum move over to the competitor? Especially after arum said he would have HBO broadcast all of pac's fights up until 2016. You really expect arum to burn his bridge with HBO?

And again why can't HBO and showtime work together? Why does it have to only be showtime? Answer this.

Who cares if they would appreciate it lol. I guarantee if Floyd wasn't signed and PAC was you would flip the script and say Floyd's ducking for not fighting on hbo. Why have a split deal if pacs not signed? Why should it be on showtime? CAUSE PACS NOT SIGNED. Lol there's no need to do both

Hbo would never kick arum to the curb over PAC fighting Floyd on sho. Get real

Okay, so how's being biased going for you?

Like I said top rank has a strong partnership with HBO to continue broadcasting pac's fights. It would be ****** and unprofessional for arum to just severe those ties when HBO and showtime can easily work together. Why does it have to be only showtime???? Why can't hbo AND showtime work together like they did before??? Floyd is setting up another roadblock knowing arum won't abandon HBO like that.

It's not for Mayweather to decide that. He's locked into a contract, only Showtime can decide to deal with HBO.

Because top rank still wants to maintain a good working relationship with hbo. HBO and showtime are willing to work together to make the fight happen. But Floyd only wants showtime because he knows arum isn't so willing to jeopardize his company's partnership with HBO.

You really don't understand the concept of burning bridges do you? Arum has already publicly stated to have HBO broadcast pac's fights until 2016. Top rank and HBO are in a strong partnership and it would be bad for arum in the long run to cut HBO out especially from the biggest fight in recent memory.

If Floyd really wants the fight then he should be open to HBO and showtime working together, right?That works for both parties. Arum/top rank can maintain good terms with HBO and Floyd stays with showtime.

Both companies should have no problem getting together for the biggest fight in recent memory. All sides win. They got together before.

Yea you're right. If PAC left hbo for one fight then They'd cut arum and only show ggg kovalev and the 5 golden boy fighters
